Does everyone but me know Peter? Munya makes out he's famous, but I've never heard of him. Reading the article, does he live in the prefab on Lordship Lane up the hill towards the Plough?

Nice story but did anyone else have a problem reading in because ads kept getting in the way?

Well, I don't know him but I guess like many others I've admired the garden and wondered about who lives there.  Now I know, it's a nice article, gentle and human.

I didn't bother reading any further after this  He’d show me newspaper clippings from the war, describing how his unsuspecting pre-fab had survived the bombs dropped only inches away.

I've talked to him about his garden. 

It's very retro (though apparently dahlias are back in fashion), but clearly lovingly cared for.

He also helps at least one of his neighbours down the hill  with their front  garden.

He's a sweetie (technical term) 👍 

And Kathleen Olander, surely you don't believe everything some journalist has misunderstood and written in the Standard?

I'm presuming the pre fab was built after the war,  after whatever was there before it was bombed. That was surely why most pre fabs in London were built?

Never met or seen Peter but his garden in full bloom is the best in the area.
